Earlier this month I talked about BitConnect.co and BitFinance.biz, two places that provided HYIP investment opportunities.  These are very high risk, but very high return "investment" plans (to use the term loosely). Shortly after writing that I put $10k into BitConnect and after less than a month I have already pulled out about $3600 in interest payments.  I chose BitConnect because it paid twice the daily rate that BitFinance paid.  I would have preferred to use BitFinance, and if I were looking to be more conservative I would have, but I couldn't pass up the 1%+ per day rate offered by BitConnect.  To me BitFinance would be preferable because BitConnect was already a couple years old and these HYIP programs tend to run their course in a few years or less.  That being said, one thing that sets BitConnect apart from all other HYIP's I've seen is they have a BitConnect Alt coin (BCC) to go along with their program and that coin has been performing very well

I personally feel that Bitcoin, or more specifically "Blockchain", is a noteworthy invention that is here to stay.  What is the
